Introducing Serv-U ---------------------- Serv-U is a flexible FTP server (or Daemon) for Microsoft Windows. As the industry's most popular FTP server, Serv-U has a rich history as a stable, fast, and feature-rich FTP server that's a breeze to administer. Available in 5 different editions, we've created a version of Serv-U that's been tailored to your business or home file-sharing needs. For more information on Serv-U, visit our web site at: http://www.Serv-U.com/ License Terms ------------- It is OK to download and evaluate the program for free, but continued use of a non-Personal edition installation requires a license. Your registration and payment means we can continue development and free distribution of the program. Registration entitles you to e-mail support and upgrades for one or two years. Single user copies start at $49.95. Quantity discounts, Site and Enterprise licenses are available. See http://www.Serv-U.com/pricing.htm for quantity pricing. Commercial use of the program (use within a business) absolutely requires registration.
